But even more vivid is the memory of the red shoes I was given not long afterwards, since pretty much all our possessions were destroyed in the fire. I can still see those red shoes to this day!<br />Best wishes on your book.

Only sometime before six years old. Maybe it's good that our memory does fail us, and we don't have to remember "bad" memories so vividly.:-)Judy Ann Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11933875283816712058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524287216814878525.post-32137553296345325442016-02-14T03:52:28.317+11:002016-02-14T03:52:28.317+11:00Thank you, Barbara!Thank you, Barbara!Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08682040969965800663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524287216814878525.post-71224403586338734562016-02-14T02:11:10.808+11:002016-02-14T02:11:10.808+11:00What an insightful post, Nikki.

Memory blended with imagination=story.<br />I just watched a Nova about how vulnerable memory is to being altered by time, repetition, expectations, and social cues. Not to mention hormones and drugs. It's both scary and exciting. We can temper horrendous memories, but at what cost?<br />Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08682040969965800663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524287216814878525.post-56819529436234268112016-02-13T22:49:44.753+11:002016-02-13T22:49:44.753+11:00My first memory also occurred when I was two and i...My first memory also occurred when I was two and it's still vivid as well.
